This marks the southernmost point of the Animas River Trail. You can cross River Road Bridge to Dallabetta Park or head north along the river through Durango.

The view is mind-blowing! Stopp and enjoy it. It can't get any better than this.

The trail from here is a mix of singletrack and doubletrack which climbs up towards the Junction Creek Trail (Colorado Trail) to the north. Taking a right at the intersection will lead you to Gudy's Rest, while taking a left will keep you headed for the CT.

This scenic viewpoint is named for Gudy Gaskill, the so-called Mother of the Colorado Trail. So it is not surprising that is located right on the famous long-distance trail, that stretches from Durango to almost Denver. It’s said, this high spot was one of her favorite places, with stunning views over the San Juan Mountains.

The network of trails on Raider Ridge is rocky, dusty, and usually fairly steep. Hikers, trail runners, and mountain bikers frequent the ridge and this lookout, which peers over the city, Animas Mountain, and the Perins Peak Wildlife Area.

The trail is a flat, paved multi-use path which follows the Animas River through Durango between Oxbow Park to the north and Dallabetta Park to the south. There are plenty of access points to jump on and off the trail and connect with other routes around town.

Oxbow Park marks the northern terminus of the Animas River Trail. The park is fairly new and features some singletrack paths along the water as well as a restroom and picnic tables.
